My QX has no cooler. The mega is now in the AMD rig, and the freakin Xiggy cooler just doesn't want to mount properly. I'll give it another shot later, but I doubt it'll work. I wonder what I'm doing wrong.

My dad is convinced that these distributive computing projects like WCG and F@H are fake and are only out to steal any information they can off of your computer.

250,000+ users
University organized
Legitimate teams competing for the top cruncher/folder spot
No one's shit has ever been stolen by these programs (that I know of)

So, I know that it's the real deal. I just passed 6 days of runtime

I think I'm going to try to get my E8400 to 4GHz somehow, I know nothing about OC'ing but I'll try to find a tutorial or something.

Distributed computing is safe, no idea where he gets that idea from. Head over to the overclocking section of TPU quite helpful guides to overclocking. Also found you this thread for Core2Duo so you can get some idea of what settings others are using for similar setups:

I will be replacing my 5K BE cruncher with a Athlon II x3 425 and a new motherboard, hopefully I'll be able to unlock it into a quad core and OC it like mine. The CPU is OTW and I have to wait till Monday to get the MO out for the MOBO. It should hopefully be online and crunching by next week . I'm becoming addicted to crunching.......
